How can a wedding agency turn wedding footage into a highlight Reel?

Shorty helps wedding planners, agencies and videographers assemble a social highlight video from footage they already have. Upload clips from the day, describe the moments and mood, and optionally add a reference. Shorty plans and renders a first cut using your footage, ready for your review.

What to upload

  • An establishing shot of the venue and ceremony space.
  • A few clear moments with the couple, plus details such as flowers and table settings.
  • Selected celebration clips and any spoken moment you want to preserve.

Choose the story of this wedding

Decide whether the Reel is a memory for the couple or a portfolio piece for your agency. A couple’s highlight can center on an emotional exchange; a planner’s portfolio can show how the setting, ceremony and reception came together. Use selected clips with a clear beginning and ending instead of expecting one short Reel to document the entire day.

Give the first cut a clear sequence

Ask for the venue first, the couple and ceremony next, and a celebration to close. Name any moment that must stay in the edit, and request a vertical canvas for a social Reel. If a reference captures the mood, explain whether you want its quiet pacing, restrained transitions or caption treatment. A reference guides the edit; matching every effect is not guaranteed.

Review before delivering to the couple

Check names, the order of events, face crops and the meaning of any speech. Make sure the selected material is approved for the intended audience. A short social highlight is a different deliverable from a complete ceremony film with synchronized cameras and carefully mixed vows. Keep that longer documentary edit in a workflow with the manual control it needs.

Common questions

Can wedding planners use Shorty without a reference video?

Yes. Upload your footage and describe the story, mood and output format. A reference video is optional.

Can Shorty replace a full wedding film edit?

A short first cut is the intended workflow here. For a complete ceremony, exact multicamera synchronization or detailed vows mixing, use an editor with the necessary manual controls.

Can I make an Indian wedding montage?

Yes, you can brief a montage from your own ceremony and celebration clips. Name the rituals and sequence that matter, then check that the edit preserves their context.

What Shorty is

Shorty is a browser-based, reference-driven AI video editor for creators, marketers and social teams. It analyses your raw video clips and either a reference video or a written editing brief, creates a shot plan, applies cuts, reframing, captions, transitions and colour treatment, then cloud-renders a downloadable MP4. If a reference contains music, its analysed soundtrack may be carried into the render.

Shorty is built primarily for social and creator video: TikTok, Instagram Reels and Feed, YouTube Shorts, YouTube, LinkedIn and X. It supports 9:16, 4:5, 3:4, 1:1, 4:3, 16:9 and cinematic 21:9 canvases.

The application is named Shorty and is published at shortyedit.com. It is operated by Tools Products FZ-LLC, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Questions: support@tools-labs.com.

How Shorty works

  1. Set the direction. Upload a short reference video when you want a specific editing style, pick a reference from Discovery, or describe the desired cuts, pace, captions, mood and destination in words. A reference is optional.
  2. Add your footage. Upload the video clips Shorty should cut from. Shorty scans them for usable moments, faces, speech, motion and visual relationships to the reference.
  3. Get the finished video. Shorty builds the edit plan, processes the footage and delivers a downloadable MP4 in the canvas you select, including vertical, portrait, square, landscape and cinematic formats.

Which AI video editing workflow should you use?

Shorty is most useful when you have footage plus a clear visual target. Other editing workflows solve different jobs; the right choice depends on where the creative decisions should happen.

Shorty AI video editor — common questions

What is Shorty?

Shorty is a browser-based AI video editor for creators, marketers and social teams. It analyses raw footage plus an optional reference video or written brief, builds an edit plan, and cloud-renders a finished MP4.

Do I need a reference video to use Shorty?

No. You can upload a reference video when you want Shorty to match a specific editing style, or describe the cuts, pace, captions, mood and output you want in a written brief.

What does Shorty copy from a reference video?

Shorty analyses visual editing characteristics such as shot structure, pacing, cuts, captions, transitions, colour treatment and aspect ratio. It creates new visuals from your footage rather than reusing the reference's video frames. When the reference contains music, its analysed soundtrack may be used in the rendered output, so you must have permission to use that audio.

Which video aspect ratios can Shorty export?

Shorty supports 9:16, 4:5, 3:4, 1:1, 4:3, 16:9 and 21:9 canvases for destinations including TikTok, Instagram Reels and Feed, YouTube Shorts, YouTube, LinkedIn and X.

How is Shorty different from a traditional timeline editor?

A traditional timeline editor gives you manual, frame-by-frame control. Shorty is reference- and brief-driven: it analyses the inputs, makes editorial decisions, and renders the finished cut. Use a timeline editor when precise manual control is the priority.

Is footage uploaded to Shorty private?

Uploaded media is stored privately to your account. Shorty uses AI service providers, including Google Gemini and Anthropic, to process reference media, footage, derived media samples, analyses and instructions as needed to plan and render the requested edit. Shorty does not use customer content to train general-purpose AI models without notice and any consent required by law. Read the AI and media processing policy.

Accounts and sign-in

You need a Shorty account to save projects and render videos. You can create one with an email magic link, or by choosing Continue with Google. The Google consent screen shown during sign-in identifies the same application, Shorty, at this domain. When you sign in with Google, Shorty receives only your basic Google profile information — your name, email address, profile picture and Google account ID — and uses it solely to create and authenticate your Shorty account. Shorty does not request access to Gmail, Google Drive, Calendar, Contacts or any other Google service data, and never sells or shares your Google account data with third parties for advertising.

Your uploaded footage stays in your account's private storage and is processed to operate, secure, support and improve the service. Shorty does not use your content to train general-purpose AI models unless it first tells you and obtains any consent required by law. You can remove uploaded assets in Shorty and request account deletion at any time by emailing support@tools-labs.com.
